Critics consensus

“The Old Guard is occasionally restricted by genre conventions, but director Gina Prince-Bythewood brings a sophisticated vision to the superhero genre - and some knockout action sequences led by Charlize Theron.”

Given a team of highly regarded actors in Charlize Theron, Chiwetel Ejiofor and KiKi Layne, Prince-Bythewood delivers both satisfying, high-octane fights and a proper storyline to stitch them together.

None of this would work without someone like Gina Prince-Bythewood behind the lens.

RTDaily Telegraph (UK)Nov 22, 2020

It's a film that's rewarding to spend time with, with a substance-over-style approach that's entirely commendable, and all too rare in films of this type.

[Director] Gina Prince-Bythewood did a good job of not conforming to the typical action tropes by only have men kick butt.
